    pac is looking for floyd and has send some feelers but he is not desperate for it. many fighters wants to fight pac and even cotto and margo admits that they would fight pac if pac is willing to face them.

    i agree though that fighting nate or jmm at 135 or 140 would not yield in the same amount of money but it would still be a good fight if not a better one. pac should just accept a 50-50 share on this one or maybe lower his demands to 55-45 and see if team hatton agrees.

    Thats not something that JMM will accept this time......

    ......this time JMM has alot more options.....unifying 135 lbs....and he too could fight Hatton in the fall of this year!

    Imagine that, JMM-Hatton at a packed Wembley Stadium!

    Hatton has better money making options than Pac......he could fight JMM or Mayweather and because of the UK PPV money, make alot more money than Pac could ever dream against the same opposition.

    .....admit it here *******, Hatton in every case against like opposition, generates more money than Pac!:deal


    If I'm the Hatton camp, I'd annouce today, "Pac is giving us until february, we're giving him till tonight!":deal:lol::lol:





    Something tells me that when its all said and done, all it will take to get Pac to sign on the dotted line and save his ego, is for a line on the contract that says that "Pac will make 1 dollar more than Hatton."
    .....technically Pac getting the better end of a 50/50 split!:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Apparently beating DLH has swollen Pac's ego!!!!:yep

    Aint happening......they dont call him "Money May" for nothing......

    What fight do you think Mayweather will accept.....a 50/50 split of both the US ans UK PPV's....likely exceeding over 2 million buys between both countries......

    ......or a 50/50 split (if Mayweather is generous not to ask for the better end of 60/40) of just the US PPV!

    Sorry *******s, but I guarantee that Mayweather will fight Hatton before he even thinks about fighting Pac!:deal

    What a joke. 50-50 is as fair as it can get. Im starting to not like this ****. When it was 70-30 when Pac was with DHL, I could understand him being upset....but 50-50...Come on Pac!!!!

    So far he's been the greatest cherrypicker that ever lived, and I don't think he wants a fight with any fighter not clearly past his prime.

    then mayweather is an ass if he fights hatton again who he clearly beats the first time around. and i don't know if the US public would be as interested as the first time knowing that the first fight is a one-sided beatdown. pac-mayweather would be huge (especially in the US) since this is the fight for the p4p supremacy.

    the 50/50 split for a US PPV only in a fight with pac will be much bigger in the US that it would compensate for lack of UK PPV.

    yep, and he wanted Nate Campbell. You can talk as soon as Pac fights an up and comer, or anyone not semi-retired. Which SHOULD mean that you never open your ******* mouth.

    How in the hell would Mayweather be an ass for fighting the fighter that would make him more money?

    Mayweather has mentioned fighting Hatton again many times, and its simply because he knows he missed the boat of the UK PPV money when they fought.

    From what I understand the first fight was a 60/40 split in favor of Mayweather.......but Mayweather took home none of the UK PPV.

    ......there is no doubt that Mayweather would make the biggest purse of his career in a rematch with Hatton at Wembley Stadium.

    The US sales for a possible Hatton-Pac or Hatton-Mayweather fight would virtually be identical.......
    ......the big difference now is that anyone who fights Hatton is looking to get paid double of what they would normally make on a PPV because the PPV sales in the UK would equal if not exceed PPV sales in the US.

    To put it bluntly, Pac's demands are ****ed!:lol:


    ......Bob Arum is currently beside himself for Pac insisting for more, because when Arum agreed with the Hatton side on the purse splits he thought he had pulled one over on the Hatton side to get them to agree to a 50/50 split of the UK PPV!

    It turns out that Arum screwed up.......this fight would have been official and signed had Arum just told the Pac camp "we got a 60/40 split of the US PPV.".....and left it at that.

    The Pac camp it seems dont have a clue that they're getting the better end of the deal by agreeing to a worldwide 50/50.

    Somebody needs to explain it to Pac that he's going to make more money fighting Hatton at a 50/50 split, than he would have made had he split the purse 50/50 with DLH!

    The Pac camp is clueless......seems like the ******* epidemic has spread to Pac himself......he's turning into a genuine *******!:lol::lol::lol::lol:
